Rice-wheat cropping system is the most exhaustive cereals production system and hasseveral issues asdelayed wheatsowing, residue management and uniformstand establishment. Therefore, this study was conducted to develop low input, zero tillage wheat sowing technology for residues management in rice-wheat cropping system with better seedling emergence through two independent field experiments. In the first experiment, the potential role of seed size and seed enhancements in improving wheat productivity planted by conventional and conservation methods was evaluated. In the second experiment, influence of seed size in improving the productivity of wheat in conventional and conservation rice system was evaluated. Rice was either raised in conventional anaerobic (puddled + flooding) ordirect seeded aerobic system (DSR), and after rice harvest, wheat was planted following conventional method, Happy seeder and Turbo seeder using wheat cultivars with bold, medium and smallsized seeds used in experiment was tested. Both experiments werelaid out in randomized complete block design with split-split plot arrangement.Wheat sowing methods andrice production systems werekept in main plots in both studies respectively, while seed size (first experiment)and wheat sowing method (second experiment) was randomized in sub-plots;seed priming techniques and different seed size was placed in sub–sub plots in first and second study respectively. In the first experiment, wheat planted with conservation tillage using Happy seeder improved thegrain yield and yield related traits. Seed priming significantly improved the stand establishment. Bold seed had better stand establishment, yield related traits and grain yield of wheat than smaller and medium grains. Crop sown with Happy seeder using hydroprimed seedscompleted maturity earlier through rapid Phenologicaldevelopments. In second experiment,rice production systems did not improve all recorded traits; however,better establishment stand was observed in wheat sown afterconventional rice culture while poor seedling emergence was recorded for the wheat sown after DSR. Among different sowing methods of wheat, the happy seeded planted wheat had better performance. Different seed size influenced allagronomic traits; however,the cultivar with medium sized seeds (FSD-2008) gave higher yield than bold and small seededvarieties.The economic analysis showed that maximum net income and benefit cost ratio werewhen bold seeded (AS-2011) wheat cultivar was planted using happy seeder following DSAR. In conclusion, zero tillage wheat and aerobic rice culture were best resource conservation technologies, whichimproved the performance and productivity of rice-wheat cropping system

فرخندہ رضوی۔۔۔ ایک تعارف
شاعری خوشبو ہے۔شاعری مہک ہے۔ شاعری دل ناز کا ترانہ ہے۔ شاعری جذبات و احساسات اور تخیل کو لفظی پہناوا پہنا کر پیش کرنے کا نام ہے۔ شاعری ایسے طلسم کدے کا نام ہے جو زمان ومکان کی قیود سے آزاد ہوتی ہے۔ شاعری محبت کا دوسرا نام ہے شاعری جذبات کے ریلے میں بہہ جانے کا نام ہے یہ سفر رواں دواں ہے اور ہمیشہ جاری و ساری رہے گا۔
شاعری کے کئی روپ ہیں کبھی یہ غزل اور کبھی نظم کی صورت میں جلوہ گر ہوتی ہے۔ کہیں رباعی اور کہیں قصیدہ کے پہناوے میں سامنے آتی ہے۔ کبھی شعلہ بن کر اور کبھی شبنم میں ڈھل کر جلوہ نما ہوتی ہے۔ کہیں عشق و محبت کے راگ الاپتی نظر آتی ہے تو کبھی آنسوؤں کی بے بس مورت کا روپ دھار لیتی ہے۔ کہیں یہ سہمی ہوئی گھٹی چیخ توکبھی انالحق کا نعرہ بن جاتی ہے تو کبھی باضابطہ مقصدِ زندگی کا اظہار بن جاتی ہے۔
موثر اور میعاری شاعری معاشرے پر گہرے مثبت اثرات مرتب کرتی ہے ہے کسی بھی شاعر کی زندگی اس کی شاعری پر کسی نہ کسی حوالے سے ضرور اثرانداز ہوتی ہے۔ شاعر اپنی زندگی کے حالات و واقعات اور اردگرد کے ماحول سے جو کچھ حاصل کرتا ہے۔ وہی سوچیں شاعری کی بنیاد بن کر سامنے آتی ہیں۔ شاعر کے خیالات اور سوچ و بچار پر سماج،گھریلو حالات، اپنوں کے رویے، خوشی اور غم،عشق و محبت، حاصل زیست اور محرومی کے اثرات کا واضح اثر ہوتا ہے۔
جہاں تک غزل اور نظم کے معیار کی بات ہے تو اس میں اسلوب اور تخیل بہت اہمیت کے حامل ہیں۔ اس حقیقت سے کوئی انکار نہیں کرسکتا کہ شعری تخلیق کے لئے خیال ہی بنیاد ہے۔ اس حوالے سے شعر لکھنے کے لیے نہیں بلکہ شعر...

معاشرتی فساد و انتشار کے تدارک کا نبوی منہج

Islam provides a complete code of life and no doubt it is the religion of love and peace. The aim 0f its teaching is to unite the Muslim world specially and the whole human community in general. “Prophetic Methodology for the Elimination of Social Disturbance and Anarchy” is the topic to provide the practical guideline to built a peaceful and human caring society. First of all the word disturbance and anarchy has been described, secondly the kinds of disturbance and anarchy as internal and external has been discussed. Different aspects, reasons and the solutions of all external and internal disturbance and anarchy has been discussed in detail. Moreover their targets and objectives have also been expressed. The main focus of the research is to provide the practical solution of all types of social disturbance and anarchy in light of Prophetic teachings.

Exploring the Role of School Leadership in Transforming the School into a Learning Community

School as a learning community is becoming one of the prominent notions in the contemporary efforts of transforming schools into learning centers where all the stakeholders are bounded together by a sense of belongingness and shared purpose of collective learning. A community, on this understanding is a group of people linked by a shared consciousness and shared identity where people are open and honest to each other because, they all see the world in the same way. Here, people develop a shared centre of values, sentiments and beliefs which encourages them to think in terms of "we" rather than "I". To transform a school into such a learning community the school leadership plays a critical role. The function of school leadership is growing complex and perplex in terms of its extensive involvement in the social, moral, educational and technical aspects of the school life. This leadership is considered as the entrance through which the norms, values and beliefs inter into the school milieu and become part of the school culture. Therefore, it becomes indispensable to explore the role of the principal as the school leader in transforming the school into a learning community. This study aimed at exploring the role of the school leadership in transforming a school into a learning community. It further intended to explore the strategies adopted by the school leadership and the challenges faced in transforming the school into a learning community. Within the qualitative research paradigm, the case study method was adopted to better meet the nature and requirements of the study. The research was conducted in a private secondary school in Karachi, Pakistan. The key research participant was the principal of the school whereas, the Vice-Principal, the Academic Coordinator, two subject coordinators, three teachers and a group of students and their parents were included as the secondary participants. This study revealed that the school leadership plays a multidimensional and complex role in creating a collegial school culture for the social, moral and educational development of the students. The school principal establishes collaborative relationships amongst all the stakeholders in order to transform the school into a learning community. He plays his role in providing opportunities for the teachers to enhance their professional growth and learning. Apart from the above, the principal also monitors the activities in order to ensure the effective achievement of targets and establish grounds for future review planning and establishing future target.
